+49 is on a distinguished road
Just picked her up today.Things a beast!

Everything works fine,Needs a deep clean got alot of free moss kinda stuff round the windows and on the silver boards things.And leathers need a clean and feed.But its a clean motor one scuff on front bumper.

Only thing doesn't seem to work is the Type pressure monitor seems to be flashing up wen the car starts but figured this is just down to a sensor or some sort and nothing majour.Hope i'm rigth lol

Great thing is the car was adervertised with the wrong mileage! His wife put it on almost 10k less miles!Result

Handling is great was really throwing around it loves to make its tyres squeal wen corning hard.Engine sounds great but is a little quite for me on low revs and really want it alot louder.. I don't do alot of miles and have no family or kids just a 25 year old male lol.

Been reading into exhaust options before even purchasing see that x-pipes popular but then ppl say its too quite after a while..And straigth pipes too raspy loosing torque aswell..

I basically want a SL55 rumble at low rev's is this possible?

First thing i'll get this done this week.Is the Engine oil change for some silkolene full syn as I do with all my cars.But I want both the diff oil chagned and gearbox's by my mechanic.Is there any other small consumable part or gaskets i should order for him while he's at it? Just wanna protect the cars mechanicals as much as possible!

thanks guys
